Nature Cries "Haltl"

Try to give dog whisky to drink
and you will see him shudder with
fear and run away. A rabbit, which
was given whisky, one spoonful
every day for the sake of experiment,
died in few days with terrible cramps
of the stomach. Place a good micro
scope over one drop of water and you
see hundreds of little animals living
and swimming Justify and cheerfully
in it, but place the same instrument
over a drop of whisky and you will find
no life whatever, death reigning there.
Then mix them together and you will
witness the following spectacle like
this: The poor animalcul@, lively and
cheerful though they were but one
moment before, at once begin to move
about most frantically; they are taken
with spaSms, with which they suffer
little while, until death relieves them.
Hence you may realize the nature of
whisky and the horror which nature
herself has instilled into every creature
against it. But what are these in COM
parisOn with the susceptibility of the
human body to the ruinOus effects of
alcoholic drinks, the traces of which
are often and Enthusiastically found in
the different disorders of the stomach
and bowels, the heart, the liver, the
kidneys. the throat and the larnyx, the
brain, the skin, the five senses, and the
mind itself Who can tell the amount
of trouble and pain and misery caused
by only one of these Affections How
terribly ruined and deformed by drink
is the human body, the most noble
work in the whole of Gods visible
world, that ''temple of the Holy Ghost"
as the great st. Paul has 50 grandly
styled it A short time ago l saw
eight representations of mans stom-
ach laid open and affected with those
disorders of which alcohol is so prolific.
They were taken from Nature and so
disgusting that people who were shown
them could neither eat nor drink on
that day.-Fdther LOiSOn.

Temperance in the Indian Army.

Dr. Dawson Burns forwards an ac-
count of the work accomplished by the
Soldiers Total Abstinence Association,
formed in India in 1862, and cordially
approved by successive Viceroys and
Commanders-in-Chief and the military
authorities, including the Duke of Con-
naught. 1t appears that in August
last there were II, 257 men and officers
of the Indian army enrolled as MEM
bers of the association. An analysis of
the habits and health of the men of the
First battalion Leinster regiment, STA
toned at Fyzabad, shows that from
January 1, 1884, to June 80, 1886, there
was an average of 267 abstainersin the
regiment and 665 non-abstainers; and
a table of the results shows the follow
ing among other instructive figures:
Defaulters, Ill abstainers, 1858 nom
abstainers; imprisoned by command
ing officer, 2 abstainers, 280 non-ab-
stainers; imprisoned by court-martial,
0 abstainers, rs non-abstainers;
granted good conduct pay, 272 alb
stainers, 251 non-abstainers; reduced,
0 abstainers, 81 non-abstainers; deaths,
2 abstainers, II non-abstainers; de-
posts in savings banks, 27,028 rupees
by abstai1.ers, 14,156 by nOn-abstainers.
What these figures signify" says DR..
Burns. ''as to improved morality any
one can perceive, though it is hardly
possible to estimate the increased eff
ficiency of the army were such an inn
provement to prevail throughout its
whole extent. "-M0ntreGL Witness.

An Early Start.

In these three words may be found
the secret of much successful work in
the line of housekeeping. Alas for the
houses that are hurried all day and
every day! The friction in such homes
is very wearing. The inmates rise
late, the breakfast is behindhand, hur-
riedly prepared and hErriedly eaten,
and things are at skies and seYens the
whole day. And SO it goes on through
the week. Mondays washing is begun
late, and laps over into Tuesday. Tues
days duties make inroads upon
Wednesday, and so of the various spe-
cial duties of each day. In many cases
difference of half an hour, or even
less, would make all the difference 1t
is false economy to spend an extra
fifteen minutes in bed when one has to
pay for it by hurrying all day to make
up for the lost quarter Of an hour

Recalling the Blessed Days When the
Steamship Was Yet Rarity.
Only think of the old East Indiaman;
four months for Captain Thunder and
Miss Spooner to be together, to start
with; four months, and perhaps longer,
with possibly Lieutenant Griffin to give
a swift maturity to emotion by import
ing neat and useful element of
jealousy. Oh, if moonlight and music
and feeling are one ashore what are
they at sea, on the deck of sleeping
fabric lifting visionary wings to the
lovely stars, when the sea fire flashes
like sheet lightning to the soft surge of
the ships bows OF counter upon the
light fold of the invisible swell. when
the westering moon, crimsoning as she
sinks, wastes her hearts blood in the
deep for love of what she is painfully
and ruefully leaving, when the dew
upon the bulwarks sparkles like some
diamond incrustations to the star
light, when the peace of the richly
clad night presses like sensible bene-
diction upon the breathless, enchanted,
listening ship, subduing all sounds of
gear creaking in blocks, Of chains
clanking to the stirring Of the rudder,
to a tender music in sweetest harmony
with the fountain-like murmur at the
bows as the vessel quietly lifts to the
long-drawn heave there-think of it,!
was there ever bower by Bendemeer S
stream comparable as a corner for the
delicate whispers of passion, for the
coy reception of kisses with some quiet
nook on the white quarter deck, shad-
owed from the stars and protected
from the dew by the awning? If you
thrill now it is because the whole ship
shakes with the whirling and thrashing
of those mighty beams of steel below.

The "DutY" of Self-InduIgence.


Is self-indulgence safer, as a rule,
than self-denial? Most persons act as
if they thought so. Then persons will
insist that they ought not to give up
any personal qualification to which
they are inclined, unless they can point
to some very good reason why they
should give it up-where one person
will insist that he ought not to follow
his personal inclinations in any direc-
ton, without being able to suggest
some good reason for his doing so. 1t
obviously requires more character to
deny ones self than to indulge ones
self; yet men and women rather pride
themselves on their refusal to deny
themselves any personal qualification
without a very good reason for their
self-denial, when they would never
think of the necessity of looking for a
reason for their doing whatever they
want to do. Inclination is by no means
identical with duty; nor is inclination
always safe guide toward duty. And
because it is so much easier to follow
inclination than to resist it, man
ought to be even more rigorous in de-
handing of himself good reason for
doing what he wants TO do, than for
not doing what he would like to do
"Only convince me that it is my duty
to give up wine or tobacco, and I will
giveit up at once" says one, who new
er for moment thought of saying,
with equal emphasis: Il would never
use wine or tobacco, unless l were con-
WINGED that it is my duty to use it. y
